Yak install fails to find compatible distribution

yak version 0.12.16 (0.12.8137.16541) that ships with Rhino 7.17 sometimes fails to install package after successfully building it for unknown reason with the following error:

“ERROR: No Compatible distribution found for MyPackage (1.0.0)”

For example:

Failure does not occur with latest version (retreived from https://files.mcneel.com/yak/tools/latest/yak.exe) 0.12.14 (0.12.7901.20097), e.g.

Because “latest” is older than version that ships with 7.17, not clear if this is a new issue or old one. Also, any logs and/or verbose output avail? would be very useful for troubleshoot these types of issues.

thanks,
